There used to be special codes to generate this. In my area, however,
both codes were appropriated for other purposes and no longer work.
If there are new codes I don't know what they are.
Assuming you don't have a cell phone, hopefully you could call a
friend and ask them to call you back. Unfortunately, that gets
tedious if you need to tinker with adjustments (like the ringer
volume) and need multiple calls.
Since the phone co expects us to do our own internal repairs, I think
they should publicize all of their test lines, not keep them a guarded
secret.

You bring up an interesting question: _why_ would Ma Bell want to keep
such numbers secret?

The same reason that they kept other test numbers from the public: it ties test equipmnt up.
